Dusty in September

Hello and welcome back!

Today I have a layout to share that I made using the stunning new September Dusty Attic mood board as my inspiration. I adore these mood boards. Has there been a single one yet that hasn't been an amazing artwork in itself?

Here's what I made this month:

I loved the dark coppery colours and gorgeous teals on the mood board so I used these on my page.

Taking my cue from the bottom right picture, I focused on shimmery, metallic accents, using metallic paints and Tinby Design Metallic Melts. Unfortunately it hasn't photographed well, with the gold and copper elements looking more orange than anything else!

I never throw out chipboard off-cuts. They can be used in so many ways. I used some off-cuts to make the 'film frame'. They were perfect! I also cut up a music notes set to make individual notes that I could scatter around the page.

I used up the last of my mini banners on this. I'll have to re-stock cos I adore them! I've used the heart button again - I find this so versatile that I seem to use it on almost every page lately.

The Dusty Attic products I used are:

Music DA0351

Mini Banners DA1021

Mini Heart buttons DA0682

Mini ABC Set Upper DA0861

and Mini ABC Set Lower DA0862

Waste Strips from various chipboards

I hope you're going to join in the mood board challenge this month. Don't forget there's a $100 Dusty Attic voucher up for grabs!

About Me

I've been scrapping now for about 13 years, since a friend dragged me along to a Creative Memories party. I fitted in scrapping when I could until the last couple of years when I've been able to devote more time to it. I'm loving the amazing journey this craft has taken me on. I've met so many wonderful people, pushed myself out of my comfort zone and have got to travel and teach. Woohoo!
